Top 5 Baby Registry Must-Haves

Being a mom myself, I remember my first pregnancy and the excitement of baby registry. But then also the overwhelming feeling of “What do I REALLY need?”. I have my favorites and I’ve asked my clients what’s theirs too! Check out below some favorites among Mamas.


1. The Ollie Swaddle

Moms swear by this for making their babies sleep through the night from day one, just kidding, but it does help! Ollie reached out to me for some baby-model photos of my baby boy, Robert. Isn’t he the cutest?! The Ollie has velcro sides and an adjustable tie at the bottom. I love the flexibility this one has while also comforting your baby for sleep.

2. Boppy Lounger

Watching tv, giving a bottle, eating dinner, or just need to sit your baby down. This one is for you! And the best part is you can use it for several months! My boys eventually were able to lay on the lounger and hold their own bottle during feedings.

3. Moms On Call book

Babies don’t come with a manual, but this short book/guide really helped me! I read through and highlighted while I was pregnant, and I loved the “peace of mind” it gave me. They also have an app which helps with newborn schedules, feedings, and stages. It was extremely helpful and every mom needs this!

4. Baby Brezza

Several moms recommended this one! Both the sterilizer and formula machine are huge time savers with bottles. Once you go through washing 30 bottle parts, you’ll wish you saved time and just bought the sterilizer! Definitely add these to your list.

5. Lollipop Baby Monitor

Several moms said they loved this! Forget about attaching the monitor to the wall or propping it on the bookshelf. This one is stretchy and wraps around the crib! I will definitely be getting this for our 3rd baby.

There you have it, Moms’ Top 5 Must-Haves for your baby registry. Below I’ll add the other recommendations to add to your list…
